Today's Devotional Scripture:                "My brethren, count it all joy              when ye fall into divers temptations;
Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may        be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask    of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be    given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that      wavereth is like a wave of the sea    driven with the wind and tossed.          For let not that man think that he        shall receive any thing of the Lord.          A double minded man is unstable in      all his ways. Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:" James 1:2-9

"A Young Boy's Prayer for Christmas"

Scripture Text: “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the    word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just  recompence of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken  by the Lord, and was confirmed unto    us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles,  and gifts of  the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?" Hebrews 2:1-4
